Ahmet Bolat, 42, of the 300 block of Justin Way, Williamstown, is wanted by the Gloucester County Prosecutor’s Office for failure to comply with probation supervision-bail supervision on charges of endangering the welfare of a child and failure to extinguish a fire.

The defendant is 5 feet 10 inches tall, weighs 150 pounds and has brown eyes and brown hair. He has a “lazy” left eye.

On Aug. 29, 2012, a Monroe Township police officer was dispatched to an apartment building at 1201 Glassboro Rd. for an active fire alarm. A resident reported that all tenants had evacuated the building and that she had seen defendant Bolat leave his apartment, which she identified as the origin of the fire. A sprinkler system had been activated and extinguished the fire.

The resident said she realized two children, ages 13 and 4, were still in the Bolat unit, and she retrieved them and placed them in her car. The officer reported finding a burned pot on the stove of the Bolat unit, another in a sink and a dismantled smoke detector. Bolat returned to his apartment several hours later and was arrested after a brief struggle.

A Gloucester County grand jury indicted Ahmet Bolat Feb. 27 on charges of second-degree endangering the welfare of a child and fourth-degree failure to extinguish a fire endangering life or another’s property.

Anyone who knows the whereabouts of the defendant should not attempt to apprehend him. Instead, contact the Gloucester County Prosecutor’s Office at (856) 384-5643 or GCPO Sgt. Barry Johnson at (856) 498-5485.
